Chapter 1244
Lin Qiye hesitated, then first turned his gaze to Gilgamesh's ability roulette wheel.
"【King's Authority】, 【Curse of All Beings】, 【Art of Courting Women】, 【Sovereign's Sword】…"
Lin Qiye spoke calmly:
"Begin."
As his voice fell, the abilities on the roulette wheel spun rapidly.
To be honest, this time's抽取, Lin Qiye wasn't worried. After the experiments with the previous patients, the 50% treatment progress round of ability抽取 could be considered a guaranteed pull. Each time, he obtained the core God's Ruins of the corresponding deity.
As for which ability would finally be抽中, Lin Qiye already had a guess in his heart.
After a long while, the pointer finally stopped on a certain ability.
"Endless Royal Decree (Sovereign's God's Ruins):
Within the range of God's Ruins coverage, you are the absolute sovereign. Any energy form not exceeding your power will be forced to submit to you, including but not limited to Forbidden Ruins, God's Ruins, and items with field-type abilities. You can command these energies to a certain extent through 'Royal Decree.'
For energies above your power level, you can also interfere through 'Royal Decree.' The effectiveness of the interference depends on the difference in power."
Reading this ability description, Lin Qiye inhaled sharply.
Although he had long guessed he would抽中 this ability, seeing the description with his own eyes still made him can't help but marvel at how变态 this ability was.
Simply put, as long as he activated【Endless Royal Decree】, he could interfere with all Forbidden Ruins, even God's Ruins within range. Against opponents at a lower or same cultivation level, he could even take control of the other's Forbidden Ruins in reverse.
In Lin Qiye's mind, memories surfaced of the Seraph Uriel's God's Ruins being forcibly seized by his future self in Hell.
So that was【Endless Royal Decree】…
"What did you抽中?" Gilgamesh asked.
"【Endless Royal Decree】."
"Very good."
Gilgamesh nodded, seemingly quite satisfied.
Lin Qiye adjusted his mindset, pulling himself back from the joy of obtaining【Endless Royal Decree】, and turned to look at the second ability wheel.
This was Sun Wukong's final抽取.
Lin Qiye took a deep breath. "Begin."
As the wheel spun rapidly, the pointer swept across ability after ability, and Lin Qiye's heart tightened.
【Fiery Eyes】, 【Vajra Body】, 【Three Heads Six Arms】, 【Spirit Separation】, 【Immobilization】, 【Restraining Circle】…
Under Lin Qiye's anxious gaze, the pointer slowly stopped at a spot on the wheel.
"Life-Saving Hair?"
Lin Qiye read the four large characters, stunned on the spot. "What is this thing…"
"Life-Saving Hair:
Given by Guanyin Bodhisattva, three in total, capable of resisting three fatal calamities."
Lin Qiye read this description three or four times, then rubbed his chin with an odd expression.
It had been a long time since he'd seen such a simple and straightforward introduction…
Before the抽取, Lin Qiye had his heart set on combat abilities like【Vajra Body】or【Three Heads Six Arms】. Getting a consumable survival ability in the end was something he never expected.
But it was fine. This ability, though having no actual combat value, could be a lifesaver at a critical moment.
Nothing was more important than staying alive.
Lin Qiye extended his fingertip and pointed at the four large characters. A warm current surged into his body, condensing into three snow-white hairs at the back of his neck.
Lin Qiye reached up to touch the hairs. The texture was slightly cool, but otherwise, they were no different from any other hair.
Just as Lin Qiye was about to leave the asylum, Gilgamesh suddenly called out to him.
"Wait."
Lin Qiye turned back疑惑ly.
Gilgamesh gripped at the void, and a miniature version of the shattered treasury appeared in his palm.
This treasury was a partial manifestation of his【Sovereign】law. Even with his physical body returned to a spirit form, he could enter the Asylum of the Gods along with it.
"King's Treasury?" Lin Qiye raised an eyebrow. "How is it?"
"Terrible. The treasury's main body is shattered, its abilities are basically invalid. It can't recover in a short time and can only be gradually restored through law." Gilgamesh lifted his fingertip, and two beams of light flew out from the treasury, landing before Lin Qiye.
Those were a dark-gold chalice holding a small amount of crimson wine, and a pale-blue coin.
"【Holy Grail】and【Star Coins】?" Lin Qiye stared.
"After the treasury shattered, many divine artifacts went missing, including the【Royal Scepter】and【King's Treasure Sword】. They were most likely secretly taken out by someone." Gilgamesh paused,
"Now that this King is trapped in this asylum and can't get out, these two divine artifacts will be temporarily given to you for self-defense.
The【Holy Grail】has absorbed the life force of the three Sumerian gods, sufficient for one or two more large-scale wishes. You're already familiar with the【Star Coins】' abilities, but its side effects are too severe. Try not to use it unless absolutely necessary.
As for the other divine artifacts, they all require divine power to activate. Even if this King wanted to give them to you, you wouldn't be able to use them."
Lin Qiye's expression lit with joy as he took the【Holy Grail】and【Star Coins】,
"Thank you."
"Don't thank me…" Gilgamesh seemed to think of something, his expression somewhat odd. He opened his mouth, looking like he wanted to say something but hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Lin Qiye asked疑惑ly.
"This King just used the【Star Coins】."
Seeing Gilgamesh's expression, Lin Qiye suddenly realized. "Bad luck?"
"That's right. The side effects of【Star Coins】, even this King may not be able to withstand them. Fortunately, this King is in this asylum. Even if there's danger, the asylum will weaken it to a minimum, so it shouldn't threaten life. However… the bad luck won't disappear."
"What do you mean?"
"The bad luck will find this King, but this King is hiding in this asylum, and this asylum… is in your mind."
Lin Qiye froze, his mouth uncontrollably widening:
"You mean it might descend on me??"
"Not descend. It's more like… shunting? You might share the side effects with this King this time, but neither will be too strong." Gilgamesh tried to comfort him.
"…"
After a brief moment of speechlessness, Lin Qiye sighed and spoke resignedly:
"I understand. I'll watch out."
There was nothing to be done. The asylum was in his mind after all. Gilgamesh had used the【Star Coins】to get them out of trouble. This bit of side effect was something he should bear.
Lin Qiye's consciousness left the Asylum of the Gods.
Once Lin Qiye left, Gilgamesh slowly stood up from the courtyard, brushed the dust off his gray robe, and walked straight toward his ward.
Just then, an explosion sounded from the kitchen on the first floor!
"Ah! The fire sprayed out too much!" A caretaker's cry of alarm followed immediately.
The next moment, a hot pan overflowing with garlic cloves and uncooked vegetables came roaring down the corridor,精准ly landing on the passing Gilgamesh's head!
