Chapter 313: Chapter 277 The New Apostle of Fate Has Emerged (Two in One)
In the vast forest sea, trees grew legs, wriggling to part ways on each side.
A pair of figures, one leading the other, traversed the Tree Demon corridor and entered into this ancient village, where the weathering of history hit them in the face.
The one in front was clad in a white robe, eyes gleaming with light.
Trailing a step behind, the other figure wore a snug outfit adorned with many beautiful patterns, glancing around subtly.
It was Matissa.
After hesitating and struggling, she still followed this Torchbearer mentor, and truly, the mentor had offered too much.
Her primary identity was still as a citizen of Sword Flower City.
The contract was clearly written and dispelled Matissa’s doubts.
After signing the contract, she was surprised to find that a simple screen had appeared in her mind, listing exchangeable items and available tasks.
It was similar to the smartphone Shi Yunxi had applied for her, only, after formally joining, the benefits were greater; the exchange list covered a dazzling array of items, several times more than the previous castrated version!
Matissa saw there a potion called ’Physical Fitness Elixir III’, which significantly enhanced the body’s fitness and was remarkably effective even for a third-stage Awakener like her.
The most incredible part was that it had no side effects whatsoever!
In Sword Flower City, there were more potent physical enhancing potions, but they came with considerable side effects and sequelae. They had nothing like the ’Physical Fitness Elixir III’, which was both potent and free of side effects.
And she could exchange for it.
Of course, it was only for personal use; taking it back to Sword Flower City was out of the question, and she had no such intention. Likewise, the mentor would not ask her to bring back any items from Sword Flower City.
She represented only herself.
The transactions between Torch and Sword Flower City were matters of power; what she had to do was simply facilitate more in-depth cooperation, which was a win-win situation.
However, upon arriving here, Matissa started to struggle with how to report the Battle of the Waves to the dean.
She was previously afraid the dean wouldn’t believe her, but now she felt giving too many details didn’t seem quite appropriate.
She couldn’t help but look at the mentor.
"Just report exactly what you saw,"
the mentor said, prompting her to startle.
"As I said before, becoming an employee of Torch will not affect your own identity or missions. As an envoy, report everything you saw as you should, but keep secret what you are seeing now, the places only accessible as a Torch employee."
In fact, Matissa was a Torch external contractor.
The only person who was both external and had signed a contract, however, he had long since conceived a similar idea, and had also drafted a ’Type B Contract’. The ’panel’ that appeared in Matissa’s mind had been castrated, with a few items still locked, and he had no plans to open up Torch’s Secret Realm to Matissa.
The purpose of signing a contract was simply to ensure secrecy.
To bind through the power of the contract.
Matissa was an experiment, a foray of Torch into the stars and the Ghastly Realm.
Blue Star was simply too small in the end; to stand against the disasters and those indescribable, overpowering beings lurking in the deepest recesses of the Ghastly Realm, relying solely on the inhabitants of Blue Star was far from enough. They needed to unite all possible forces.
His initiation of the Awakening process, combined with Matissa, a seasoned three-time Awakener, could instantly produce a fourth-stage Non-human Awakener!
This was also the reason he wanted to sign a contract with Matissa.
On the other hand, it was because of strength; the Great Oasis is a mid-level force within the Ghastly Realm, and Torch now possessed power that did not shrink in comparison to the Great Oasis.
"Moreover, there were numerous spectators who witnessed the Battle of the Waves, and beings above myths in the outer sky watching. With or without Sword Flower City, it makes no difference."
He stated it plainly.
Yet those words shocked Matissa, her eyes wide and her pupils trembling, her hands and feet becoming stiff as if immobilized, shaking uncontrollably.
"Myth MYTH MYTH MYTH MYTH?!"
"I’ve actually been observed by a formidable being!"
"Mama Mia—!"
Matissa turned pale and couldn’t help looking at the mentor. How can you be so calm!
...
The leaves in the forest rustled, with occasional chirps and calls of insects and birds.
The sky was naturally a bit dark, but compared to most parts of the world, this place remained a tranquil garden oasis, with scarce signs of Mysterious Evil.
It might be the portal to a Secret Realm, leading here, anchored in space.
Or perhaps it was the Heroic Spirits of old sheltering this place.
Fang You returned to the Secret Realm for a while and, after more than an hour, came back to find Matissa still sitting on the Awakening cushion, her face blank, disbelieving.
"Mentor?"
"I’ve experienced the fourth Awakening, I’ve become a being of the Non-human Realm?"
She still felt as if she were in a dream.
In Sword Flower City, a fourth Awakening was an absolute high-ranking position, respected anywhere in the Great Oasis.
It was a world of difference compared to the third Awakening.
Before this, Matissa was confident that she, too, had some chance of experiencing the fourth Awakening, but it would take a long preparation and carried significant risk.
She might have awakened to the fourth stage, or she might have died in the process.
But now she was unimaginably lucid, with not even a hint of phantom sound in her ears.
Was this... the mentor’s purpose in bringing her here? Was this the real advantage of Torch!
It felt as though a new world’s door had burst open before her, shattered beliefs re-formed, and the figure in white robe before her grew in her eyes, towering and majestic.
Suddenly, Matissa recalled what the mentor had told her before.
