Chapter 52 Herding

Helmani tried to sense the "wrong" aura, and there was a vague reaction, but for some reason she couldn't connect at all.

Helmani also tried to catch other scents, but to no avail.

Hermione sighed inwardly with some regret after her unsuccessful attempt: "I still haven't found any common ground between Amanisis and Lilith, the progenitor of the vampires. Surely I can only bring these two into the dream space right now..."

However, if we want to play it safe, it's not advisable to make contact with other more powerful beings right now, as both she and Amanisis are still in their growth phase.

During development, you still have to be cautious.

At this moment, Amanisis, speaking of the invitation from the giants, frowned and said, "The giants, under such heavy pressure, still insist on holding the celebration, and even included your name on the list of invitees... What do you think they're trying to do?"

Hearing Amanisis mention the giants' celebration, Helmaene's emotions were slightly stirred. She had spent a great deal of resources to release the "Error" uniqueness from the Chaos Sea to disrupt the situation, yet the giants still had the energy to pay attention to her.

Helmaine had some predictions, which were most likely related to the "King of Giants'" plans for the future of humanity.

However... this also shows that the "King of Giants" seems to care a lot about the human race.

"Wartime festivals can also boost morale... As for inviting me to participate in the festival, I'm probably curious about what human demigods look like," Helmaenie replied vaguely, without mentioning to Amanisis that the Giant King intended to spread his offspring among humans.

Amanisis didn't try to hide it much.

Hermaine could certainly sense Amanisis's special feelings for her.

Although Amanisis is known for her calm and composed nature, Hermaine couldn't guarantee that Amanisis would remain completely calm and composed when it came to matters of human nature and emotions.

However, Amanisis was not yet fully grown and it was not advisable for her to confront the Giant King directly.

Hermaine then shifted the topic to tribal development and the spread of faith:

"Fortunately, the giants did not forcibly conscript young men from the tribe to serve them this time, so it will not interrupt the tribe's current momentum of development... While I am on my way to the 'Giant's Court,' please pay close attention to the safety of the tribe. If there are large-scale casualties among the tribe's residents, it will shake our anchor and affect our mental state."

Simply threatening the safety of the tribe's inhabitants is not enough to bind the rather cunning Amanisis.

Therefore, Hermaine emphasized that the safety of the tribe's inhabitants was related to their mental stability and wanted Amanisis to stay in the tribe.

Amanises sensed that Hermaine was intentionally hiding something from Him. After a moment's thought, He still spoke up, "I will accompany you to the giants' festival. The 'Giant King' is distracted by the 'Mistake' and may not participate in this festival. As for those giants' gods... they pose no threat to me."

Throughout the Second Age, there were very few Sequence One minor gods. Coupled with the power of secrecy and calamity, Amanisis already had the beginnings of a sinister and cunning world.

Hearing this, Helmani shook her head and advised, "The Giant King may not be unable to participate in the ceremony. At the level of true gods, the distance between regions is something they have many ways to overcome in a short time."

Bardhar, the "God of Dawn," is currently only at Sequence 2 of the "Twilight Giant" pathway, yet he can indirectly use the power of aging and decay to travel between spirit realms. The "Giant King," who wields the authority over this pathway, must possess even more powerful similar methods.

Thinking of her ability to travel between spirit realms, Hermaine said to Amanisis:

"After I ascend to the 'Three-Headed Sanctuary,' I will be able to shepherd the souls of extraordinary beings, thereby gaining the abilities of those shepherded. There is still some time before the Giants' Festival, and I plan to hunt down extraordinary beings to obtain the ability to teleport over long distances."

The "Chaos Sea" contains the extraordinary characteristics of the "Hanged Man" and "Sun" pathways from Sequence 9 to Sequence 0. When Helmaene switched pathways, she chose the "Three-Headed Sanctuary" instead of Sequence 3 of the Sun pathway because she valued its herding ability.

Besides being able to use other abilities, she also wanted to try to unlock more potion recipes and ascension rituals for the "Blasphemy Slab" through her herding abilities.

"Long-distance teleportation..." Relying on the knowledge of pathways recorded on the "Blasphemy Tablet," Amanisis, who has completely completed her own pathways, now also has the ability to travel through the spirit world, and naturally knows the importance of mobility for safety.

Having gained a basic understanding of herding abilities through Hermaine's description, Amanisis chuckled, "Since you've clearly stated your desire for herding abilities, you must already have a plan on how to acquire them, right?"

"Um."

Helmani nodded and said:

"An immortal bird is wreaking havoc on the northern border of the giants. A human tribe has settled there, and there are scattered followers of mine. Although they have not yet been affected, some believers are praying to me with fear."

As she said this, Helmani sighed inwardly. In the face of these divine beings, human tribes were as fragile as weeds, and were in danger of being wiped out at any time. That was why the Ilusa tribe was so excited when she called herself a demigod.

Being protected by other races is far less beneficial than the growth of one's own race.

Thinking this, Helmani said again, "Why don't you step in this time? I'll herd the spirit of that phoenix, and you can spread your faith in that human tribe?"

Amanisis currently needs more believers to maintain her status.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"Alright." Amanisis didn't refuse Helmaenie's offer and nodded. "When do we depart?"

"Wait a moment longer." Having finalized the itinerary, Helmani smiled and said, "I plan to bring in the 'Progenitor of the Vampires' for a chat, and incidentally collect the agreed-upon price."

This matter involves a true deity, and Amanisis, quite curious, asked, "Have you decided what 'price' you want to demand from the progenitor of the vampires?"

Helmani smiled rather wickedly: "I plan to use this 'progenitor of the vampires' to add fuel to the fire for the 'King of Giants.' If his plastic ally becomes less trustworthy, I don't believe he'll still have the leisure to cause trouble."

Once the Chaos Sea detects the corresponding aura, Helmaenie can contact the other party at any time, unless under specific conditions.

However, compared to Zhou Mingrui's "forced summoning" of Tarot Club members using the power of "Source Castle," Helmaenie's ability is more like "summoning."

A being of such high status as Lilith, far exceeding her own rank, is capable of resisting Helmaene's call.

However, Helmani was certain that, barring unforeseen circumstances, the "progenitor of vampires" would not resist establishing a connection with her, an being who understood the "primordial moon."

Indeed, Helmaene, in the name of the "Sun Goddess," invoked and pulled at Lilith's consciousness.

A response was received just moments later.
