Mystery: She came from the Chaos Sea.

Chapter 71 Deduction

The "King of Giants" has fallen.

The goddess of harvest, Omibella, and the god of dawn, Badhair, fled the giants' court immediately, but Omibella was captured by Lilith, who had long coveted her, and taken back to the vampire clan.

"Don't we need to hunt down Badheil?" Although Amanisis was not in good condition, crushing the second sequence of the Twilight Path was an extremely simple matter for her.

Helmani glanced at the orange-red sky and shook her head, saying, "Keeping Him around is actually quite useful."

Bradel, however, recklessly rushed in front of them, hurling all sorts of vulgarities at them.

Amanisis restricted Bradel's mobility and looked at Helmani. Thanks to Selena's daily faithful prayers, He knew that Helmani got along fairly well with the giant king's youngest son.

Yeah, right...

Hermaine never considered Bradell's casual conversations as friendly interactions.

Looking down at Bradel, who was cursing at her from below the steps, Helmaenie sighed and said to Amanisis, "It's yours now, but keep the special ability for me. I didn't get anything this time."

The reason she didn't do it herself was that, as a Sequence 3 character, she had a very difficult time killing this "Honorable One"...

Dusk was falling.

To stabilize her mind after becoming a god, Amanises temporarily fell into a deep sleep, thus the fall of the "King of Giants" and the resulting changes in the situation all fell on Helmaene's shoulders.

The turmoil within the pan-human camp and the war with extraordinary races such as dragons have left humanity, which has seen a glimmer of hope, still in a precarious situation.

but……

Everyone believes that the future of humanity is bright.

"First Councilor Helmaine: The giants are generally in stable spirits, and the powerful giants of the 'Twilight' pathway have surrendered to us one after another. However, the fighting spirit of the giants on the front lines is low, and they are becoming increasingly passive, both on the front lines with the dragons and in the surprise attacks of the phoenixes."

Severus looked at Helmaene with mixed feelings of joy and worry. He never dreamed that humans would be able to overthrow the rule of the giants in one fell swoop and then absorb the giants into the human race.

Even the unfavorable situation on the front lines and the numerous internal conflicts between the human and giant races did not wake him from this dizzying sense of luck.

Fortunately, Ocycus, who was handling matters related to the giants with him, showed a composure beyond his years, which also influenced Severus, preventing him from making any mistakes.

However, the dire situation was far beyond their ability to handle.

Leodorus also reported with a headache: "The elves are still insisting on communicating only with the 'Goddess of Twilight,' refusing to renew the alliance with us humans, and refusing to participate in any current battles."

The fall of the "King of Giants" caused the elves living in the deep sea to break their alliance with the giants and refuse to cooperate with the humans who had absorbed the giants' power.

Not only that, the elves have even severed ties with the vampires, and it is said that the hot-tempered "Spirit King" cursed the vampire progenitor as a traitor.

The vampires actively participated in the war between the giants, dragons, and phoenixes. Among them, Duke Olmer, the Sequence 2 "Creator," essentially single-handedly stopped the dragons from advancing towards the giants' royal court.

On the other side, Urolius said devoutly, "The construction and replacement of the temple and statues of the 'Twilight Goddess' have been scheduled, but the fierce war has led to a severe shortage of manpower, and all projects are progressing slowly."

The other tribal councilors also spoke about their respective responsibilities, all of which were fraught with difficulties.

Helmayne was also quite troubled after listening to the troubles and suggestions of the members of parliament.

Amanisis needs more time to stabilize her mental state. Therefore, the pressure from the dragons, phoenixes, and alien races now rests almost entirely on the shoulders of their ally, the vampires.

The giants, who were originally part of the gods, were either dead or had fled. Even with Helmaene possessing high-sequence extraordinary traits, she couldn't help humanity produce a powerful being capable of turning the tide in such a short time.

The current situation makes it impossible for either humans or giants to provide high-ranking combat power to the front lines.

If the wolf clan hadn't suddenly calmed down and retreated from the battlefield, the pressure on the human side would have been even greater.

But the wolf clan's calm may be masking a bigger problem—the powerful "Wolf King" seems to be getting more rational.

After a moment's thought, Helmani tapped the stone table and spoke:

"The most important thing right now is to establish contact with the elves."

"Even though the elves live deep in the ocean, if we and the vampires are destroyed by the non-human camp, the elven race will also be doomed to extinction when facing other extraordinary races."

"Leodorus, I'll go with you to the Elven realm."

Leodorus, who had been repeatedly turned away by the elves, nodded with a wry smile: "Elves are stubborn, and their mouths always beat their brains. We need to control our emotions when dealing with them."

Once the most important decisions are made, the rest can be handled and resolved more quickly. Of course, there are also many issues that need to be put on hold.

After the meeting, Hermaine did not intend to immediately set off with Leodorus for the Elven realm.

Although this arrangement was made in the council chamber, in the current era, rank and power are the foundation of communication.

After careful consideration, Helmani decided to advance her sequence again to become a Sequence Two, and only after truly transforming into a divine being would she make contact with the elves.

Helmaenie had already made her choice regarding the sequence for advancement: Sequence 2 of the Solar Path, "Light Chaser".

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

Amanisis has now ascended to become a true deity, wielding authority over the "Twilight" pathway, and has grown into a true overlord.

This greatly relieved Helmani's sense of urgency, allowing her to more rationally plan her path to godhood.

Having already become deeply entangled with the "Chaos Sea," she is undoubtedly destined to embark on the path of God, gathering the power of all five factions—the "Dreamer," the "Hanged Man," the "Sun," the "Tyrant," and the "White Tower"—and merging with the "Chaos Sea."

This is also the path taken by the ancient sun god in the story video.

But the fall of the Far One and the near annihilation of His followers on the Eastern Continent served as a stark reminder of the perilous nature of Hermaine's path, making it virtually impossible to traverse.

A similar, but better, path is to first become a dual-path True God—the "Dreamer" and the "Hanged Man"—then contain the primordial "Chaos Sea," and finally graze the uniqueness of the three-path "Sun," "Tyrant," and "White Tower," thereby achieving a pillar that transcends True Gods and the Old Ones.

Compared to the former, which would directly revive the former "God" within her body, the latter would better maintain her self-preservation—this is the path the story video explains to her.

However, what made Helmeyni suspicious was that the video was very likely a gift left to her by that "God".

If that's the case, then the merits of these two paths become questionable...

However, having reached this point, Helmaene has also found a way to confirm this problem through contact and connection with the source material "Chaos Sea".

She couldn't be omniscient and omnipotent like that "God," and as she learned more and more about this mysterious world, she even doubted that that "God" might not be truly omniscient and omnipotent either.

That video might hold secrets she doesn't yet know.

However, it is highly likely that the "Chaotic Sea" can use its omniscient and omnipotent deductive abilities to determine whether the video is correct.

However, to strengthen the connection with the "Chaos Sea" to the point where it can be used for deductions without becoming a god...

Helmani speculated that at least all five families' traits needed to be raised to the level of Sequence 2.

The deductive abilities of the "Chaotic Sea" are a cheat code given to Hermione. [Facepalm]

In the initial outline, I planned for Hermione and God to fight over the lower body, much like Klein and the Celestial. So, this kind of power-up wasn't necessary.

However, in the Locus of Fate setting, "God," that old lecher, has gone too far. I simply cannot accept such a "Prison Emperor" awakening within Hermione, not even for a moment... So, I'm using a cheat code to verify the video's accuracy for Hermione, preparing some ammunition for future elbowing Prison Emperor battles. [Please forgive any inconsistencies.]
