I sparked a mysterious resurgence in Marvel.

Chapter 320

Golden Apple

Looking at the items in the third phantom, Erin sighed slightly.

to be frank.

Erin was not very satisfied with any of the three items he could exchange for the Shadow Crystal.

However, he wasn't too disappointed.

After all, the shadow crystals left behind by the Twisted Shadow after its death were an unexpected bonus for Erin.

Being able to exchange for something of this caliber was beyond Erin's expectations.

What more could he possibly want?

Of course, Erin, who was not very satisfied with these three items, directly used her trump card to change her fate.

"Scales of Fate, add some points (Fate Points)!"

A thought arose.

As Erin continued to add weights (fate points) to the shadow crystal, the phantom on the other side of the scales of fate gradually began to change.

After Erin continued to increase the amount of supplies and removed items with strong side effects.

What finally appeared before Erin was a peculiar fruit tree that resembled both an apple and a fig.

【The Fruit of Wisdom (Forbidden Fruit): A divine fruit born in a certain Garden of Eden. Eating it increases the spiritual wisdom of living beings and simultaneously cultivates a divine nature within the body.】

[Note: The Fruit of Wisdom is the forbidden fruit of a certain deity, seemingly concealing some unknown secrets. He designated it as the forbidden fruit of Eden, and any being that consumes it will face His terrifying wrath. However... no matter how powerful that deity is, it's impossible for Him to traverse countless realms to hunt you down for a single Fruit of Wisdom. So, eat it without worry, young one.]

"The forbidden fruit of the Garden of Eden? Could this be the forbidden fruit that Adam and Eve ate?"

He touched his chin.

Looking at his Wisdom Fruit, which he had obtained by spending 6000 Fate Points in addition to the seven Shadow Crystals, Erin couldn't help but wonder.

However, after a moment of curiosity...

Erin then readily agreed to the exchange with the Balance of Fate.

Compared to the items I saw before.

The effects of the "Wisdom Fruit" are undoubtedly much better.

Not to mention, the consequence of consuming this fruit of wisdom was simply to anger that god who was somewhere in an unknown world.

Just as the note says, I only consumed a single Wisdom Fruit. How could the other party possibly cross countless realms to hunt me down?

With Erin's confirmation, it happened very quickly.

On the other end of the scales of fate, a golden-red fruit materialized.

The moment the fruit appeared, an intense fragrance, indescribable in words, quickly spread out.

Although Erin in the Scales of Heaven was just a spirit, he strangely "smelled" the "fragrance" that kept tantalizing his taste buds and stimulating his craving for food.

Gudong.

After swallowing a mouthful of saliva that wasn't actually there.

Looking at the Fruit of Knowledge formed by the scales of fate, Erin seemed to understand why Adam and Eve had eaten the forbidden fruit.

Even Erin, with her strong willpower, found the smell unbearable, let alone others.

He shook his head.

Erin reached out and beckoned.

The golden and red wisdom fruit floated into Erin's hand.

After obtaining something sufficient to condense divinity.

Erin didn't hesitate.

He placed the pale gold [Broken Artificial Godhood], covered in fine cracks, directly onto the scales.

········

A few minutes later.

A dazzling, gilded rhombus-shaped crystal, its interior shimmering with mysterious runes and shining even in the Scales of Space, appeared before Erin and began to spin in mid-air.

The repaired [artificial godhood] was simply floating quietly in mid-air, without emitting the slightest aura.

However, Erin, who was not far away, only glanced at the [artificial godhead] and felt a vast and boundless, terrifying pressure, as powerful as a prison.

"Hiss... This aura is truly terrifying! If I were to refine this artificial divine spark, the sheer pressure of this terrifying aura alone would probably scare away many enemies!"

A slight smile appeared on Erin's face as her lips parted slightly.

After glancing casually at the Fate panel and seeing the Fate Points plummet by 99999, the smile that had just appeared instantly turned into a heart-wrenching pain.

A good while passed.

Erin finally suppressed the feeling of heartache.

"call!"

After exhaling a breath of stale air, Erin looked at the repaired [Artificial Godhood] and the [Wisdom Fruit] he had exchanged for with Shadow Crystals and Fate Points, and his eyes flickered.

With these two things, plus the two "miracles" I performed in New York, I can now start planning the "stealing the god" scheme that I had once fantasized about.

With the two key items in hand, a wild and unbridled glint of madness flashed in Erin's eyes.

But crazy as it may be.

At this moment, Erin showed no impulsiveness whatsoever.

After setting aside the [Artificial Deity] and the [Wisdom Fruit]...

Erin then set his sights on his remaining 22070 Fate Points.

The gains from this battle in New York were too great.

Besides securing the key items for the "Stealing God" plan ahead of time, the remaining Fate Points allow Erin to accomplish many other things.

Thinking of the Eternal Flame outside that was waiting for him to find a container to store it, Erin decided to use the Scales of Fate to materialize a container to store the Eternal Flame and carry it with him.

However, when he saw the buff that his world favored, a glint flashed in Erin's eyes, and another idea popped into his mind.

Summon the phantom of the scales of fate once more.

To obtain even the lowest-grade [Fire God Ring] that can store Eternal Flame and carry it with you, you need 18888 Fate Points.

Erin spent 108 Fate Points to materialize a bunch of Rubik's Cube materials that could be used to set up magical rituals, pray to the mysterious fate, and temporarily increase one's luck.

Grind lilac, star dew, and other ingredients into powder, then place them in an antique-style bronze incense burner.

Erin placed three pure white candles around the bronze furnace.

After arranging the candles, Erin's eyes quickly darkened, and within those darkened eyes, there seemed to be an invisible flame flickering.

Under Erin's gaze, the three pure white candles were lit one by one, from left to right and from top to bottom, through the friction of Erin's spirituality and matter.

Followed by.

An invisible flame seemed to rise beneath the antique bronze furnace, baking the extraordinary materials ground into powder within.

When wisps of blue smoke rose from the bronze incense burner.

Erin closed his eyes and silently began chanting the incantation:

"Use your heart as fire, and your spirit as fuel;"

"Under the witness of pure white and cyan;"

"Fate, an unseen force, is the omnipresent embodiment of good fortune."

········

"I sincerely pray that you will grant me a bit of luck and help me achieve my wishes."

After a series of short and powerful prayers.

Erin took a step forward and circled the antique bronze furnace three times in each direction.

With each step Erin took, an invisible force burst forth from the bronze furnace, imbued with spirituality, connecting with the air to form a sealed wall.

After three laps, the simple altar was separated from its surroundings.

Immediately afterwards, Erin dripped a drop of moonflower dew onto each of her hands and between her eyebrows.

next second.

The powder inside the bronze furnace ignited spontaneously without wind, and the billowing blue smoke surged towards Ailin.

After the blue smoke appeared.

Erin quickly began to pray again.

"I want something I can carry with me that can contain the eternal flame!"

"I want something I can carry with me that can contain the eternal flame!"

"I want something I can carry with me that can contain the eternal flame!"

·······

After seven straightforward prayers, the wisp of smoke circled around Arryn once before breaking through the sealed wall and disappearing into the boundless void.

After the smoke dissipated, Erin suddenly sensed something different, but after observing it closely, he seemed to find nothing at all.

Although Erin himself did not notice anything different, a feeling told him that the ritual had succeeded.

If you observe Erin's spirit closely, you will find that Erin's spirit at this moment is tinged with a clear glow under some unknown force.

However, this radiant light was rapidly dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It is not too late.

After sensing that the ritual had taken effect, Erin immediately summoned the phantom of the Wheel of Fate and performed a ten-pull.

The next moment.

A gigantic phantom of the compass of fate instantly appeared above Erin's head and began to spin rapidly.

Just as the compass of fate was spinning, the "World's Blessing" entry on Erin's panel suddenly flashed.

In no time at all, the phantom of the compass of fate disappeared.

Ten more orbs of light appeared in front of Erin.

Among these ten orbs of light, one dazzling purple orb stood out conspicuously.

Purple.

The moment that dazzling purple appeared in front of Erin.

Undoubtedly, the fact that a purple item could be obtained in a ten-pull was clearly a blessing from the world, influencing Erin's luck in the unseen world.

Otherwise, a magic ritual that only cost 108 Destiny Points to temporarily increase luck could not bring this level of good fortune.

"Thank you for the world's gifts."

After sincerely thanking the world for its favor, Erin quickly stepped forward and reached out his hand directly to the purple ball of light.

One second later.

When Erin's right hand touched the purple ball of light and obtained information about the items within it, a smile appeared on his face.

[Zhurong's finger bone: A small piece of finger bone from an ancient fire god in Eastern mythology.]

【Characteristic 1: Fire Capacity. As the finger bone of the ancient fire god, it can contain and store all the fires in the world.】

【Characteristic 2: Lord of Fire. Although this is just a piece of finger bone, when ground into powder and ingested and refined, it can still grant the user an affinity for fire. Those with this affinity will experience a significant increase in the power of any fire-related spells they employ.】

[Characteristic 3: The Wrath of Zhurong. After igniting the endless, undying rage of Zhurong within the finger bone with spiritual power, this finger bone will release a raging inferno, forming a vast fire domain that incinerates everything within it.]

The [Zhurong Finger Bone] has few attributes.

However, only the first edge satisfied Erin's needs.

Moreover, that small section of finger bone, which was much thicker and larger than that of a normal person, could be polished into a bracelet and worn on Erin's hand.

Yep.

The finger bones of Zhurong are not the stark white bones one might imagine.

Its material is more like a piece of unique bone jade that is fiery red like blood. After being polished and decorated, it will not look out of place at all when worn on the hand.

On the contrary, it presents a unique kind of beauty.

Moreover, once you hold the [Zhurong Finger Bone] in your hand, you don't need to worry about it emitting a scorching heat that could burn you.

This piece of Zhurong's finger bone, smooth and warm to the touch, felt not at all hot, but rather had a gentle, warm feel.

That alone would be enough to satisfy Erin.

Of course, the second characteristic of [Zhu Rong's Finger Bone] is also good.

The edges of Zhu Rong's finger bone were not smooth. Ai Lin estimated that after he polished the uneven edges of the [Zhu Rong's finger bone] and made it into a bracelet, he could grind the scraps into powder to improve his affinity with fire.

With the added benefit of fire affinity, Erin's control over fire will be greatly enhanced.

At that time, whether it's controlling the Eternal Flame or other exotic flames, Erin will be more adept at it.

As for the final self-destruct-like characteristic of [Zhu Rong's Finger Bone], Ailin felt it was a waste.

·······

After playing with the [Zhurong Finger Bone] in his hand for a while...

Only then did Ailin finally put down the piece of [Zhurong's finger bone] with satisfaction.

With just one ten-pull, spending 1000 Destiny Points, I got what I wanted. The effect was only slightly inferior to the Fire God Ring, which required 18888 Destiny Points, by the storage function of the [Zhurong Finger Bone].

Erin couldn't help but marvel at the immense favor the world had bestowed upon him.

Looking at the World's Blessing attribute on his panel, which seemed to have dimmed due to this trigger, Erin was extremely glad about his previous decision.

After being activated once, the "Blessed by the World" entry dimmed somewhat, and it was clear that it could not be activated again in the short term.

However, once it recovers...

Perhaps Erin will be able to take advantage of the world's favor and fleece people again.

of course.

The benefits of the world's favor go far beyond this.

Thinking about this...

Arlin couldn't help but recall the help Loki had given him when he returned from the Time Bureau.

If it weren't for his repeated, selfless actions to rewind time, we would have been in a completely different situation.

Faced with the self-destructing Twisted Shadow, it was already a miracle that Erin could survive the tide of death, let alone destroy the Twisted Shadow and obtain such a reward.

I seem to owe this favor a lot!

It seems that changing the fate of the goddess Frika is more difficult than Erin had anticipated.

Otherwise, the cunning Loki wouldn't have paid such a price.

However, since they received such a large benefit...

No matter how difficult it is, Erin has no intention of backing down.

Queen Fricca.

I'm determined to save them.
