Chapter 350: Chapter 108: Divine Power Warrior

Priest Martina held a celebration banquet in Duolin City, while at Green Field, the return of Clara was being celebrated as well.

However, the scale of the banquet was not as grand, and the guests who attended, besides the little maid herself and some friends she often played with, were Tom and his comrades who were responsible for this rescue mission.

Together with Li Yu and Miss Rabbit, who came to join the fun, there were no more than twenty people.

The venue was set in the courtyard where Li Yu lived, but other than a big bottle of cola brought by Li Yu, the table was filled with common dishes, without any rare ingredients like swan meat.

But the atmosphere was still quite lively.

Tom and the others actually returned to Green Field the day before, but at that time Li Yu happened to be absent, so Hera held a welcome ceremony on his behalf.

In addition, rewards were given to Tom and his group, including ten gold coins each, one hundred pounds of flour, twenty pounds of pork, forty pounds of dogfish, as well as Divine Country points unique to the Double Rest Sect.

These Divine Country points allowed all those who participated in this rescue mission to level up five levels on the spot, while Tom the team leader soared to level seven in one go.

And they each received an upgrade gift bag at levels three, five, and seven.

Tom opened from the gift bag a Monkey Rubber Band, two Tom and Jerry movie tickets, and ten bath vouchers.

He knew what the Tom and Jerry movie tickets were for, and the Monkey Rubber Band was quite magical.

After playing with it for a while upon receiving it, Tom found it could be used to tie money bags and hair because of its exceptional elasticity, but he could not identify what animal’s tendon it was made from. Moreover, it was too small and not tough enough to be used as a bowstring.

Regarding the bath vouchers, it was only after asking Hera that he learned the first bathhouse of the Double Rest Sect had been officially completed the day before yesterday and was expected to open for business soon.

Now, the Sabeths were actively promoting the benefits of bathing and maintaining personal hygiene among the believers.

Tom was one of the earliest to receive bath vouchers and could enjoy this service in advance. Moreover, Hera told Tom that later, when Li Yu descended again, he would be granted a small Holy Artifact to commend his outstanding performance in this rescue operation.

Upon hearing this, Tom was quite excited.

Although he currently had a number of Holy Artifacts on him, they either belonged to the Black Hound Guard or were temporarily lent to him by Li Yu and had to be returned after the mission, none of which were his own.

Tom had always envied the Holy Swords in the hands of Jude and Onund.

But since the two were the commander and deputy commander of the Black Hound Guard, Tom understood that as a small team leader, a Holy Sword was definitely out of reach, and Hera also made it clear that this was just a small Holy Artifact.

However, this did not prevent Tom from looking forward to it.

When the banquet began, Li Yu indeed called his name.

Tom showed joy on his face, immediately stood up, and came before Li Yu, kneeling on one knee.

Li Yu asked him to extend his right hand, took something out of his suit pocket, and placed it in his palm.

Tom carefully received it, brought the object before his eyes, and carefully examined it.

Just as Hera said, this Holy Artifact was very small, being only as thick as two fingers and roughly the length of a finger, with the upper part in black and the lower part in red.

It also bore a string of Divine Language and mysterious numbers.

The little maid beside also leaned in, trying hard to make out the writing on it—Meixing Restaurant phone number: 88732499.

Just then, Li Yu’s voice rang out again, "On behalf of Saturday, I bestow upon you the ability to summon flames. Place your finger on the Holy Artifact and find a part that can be pressed, then push down hard."

Tom did as he was told, and in the next moment, a flame suddenly burst forth from the other half.

Caught off guard, Tom jumped in fright and quickly let go of the black button, and then the flame disappeared.

"It seems you have learned to use this Holy Artifact," Li Yu said. "It’s very simple. When you need it, press the button to summon the flame, and release it to extinguish the flame. Hmm, this Holy Artifact can probably be used about three or four hundred times before the Divine Power inside it vanishes."

Tom’s finger had been poised over the lighter’s button again, but hearing Li Yu’s latter half of the sentence, he hurriedly released it.

He carefully kept the Holy Artifact close to his body and sat back down, his mouth nearly splitting to the back of his head with glee.

Although the lighter did not have the flashy look of a chainsaw, its practicality might even surpass it. Moreover, this was the power to manipulate flames.

In any church, this was deemed to be Divine Power that only a God could possess.

Only in the Double Rest Sect, only on Saturday, would this kind of Divine Power be generously bestowed upon the faithful.

Tom’s heart was now full of excitement, because from today onwards, he was no longer an ordinary warrior, but a Divine Power Warrior who could wield Divine Power!

After giving away the lighter, Li Yu also praised Redio and the other members of the squad.

He then encouraged everyone to bring up the difficulties encountered during the mission and suggest improvements, for Clara to record.

This was the Double Rest Sect’s first mission outside Green Field, and there were many valuable experiences and lessons to be summarized.

After the meal, Li Yu took the little maid to a small courtyard near the swamp.

Before they even entered, they heard roars of fury coming from inside.

"Where is Merlin? Where is Merlin? I’m going to kill him! That detestable deceiver!!! I’ll chop off his head, impale it on a spear, and flay the flesh from his body piece by piece!"

The little maid was startled by this vicious curse and couldn’t help but take half a step back.

On the other hand, Li Yu, the subject of the curse, showed no reaction and calmly pushed open the door.

Then they saw Golden Eyes with his hands and feet chained, and Ruby, standing by the wall with a worried expression.

Upon seeing Li Yu, Ruby seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, "I just tried to give him some water, but he knocked the bowl flying."

"Hmm, you’ve had a hard time, take a rest," Li Yu said softly. "I’ve had a meal prepared for you; it’s been sent to your place."

"It’s nothing. We wouldn’t have been able to leave Duolin City without Lord Golden Eyes’ help. I hope he can find some relief," Ruby said.

When Golden Eyes saw Li Yu, the fire in his eyes burned even fiercer, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Liar! You and your God are liars!"

"I didn’t lie to you," Li Yu said. "I made it clear from the start that I could give it a try. I never said I could definitely cure you, nor did I say that the process would be easy."

Golden Eyes looked as though he had been pulled out of water, drenched in sweat, with bloodshot eyes and pupils dilated larger than usual, his body trembling continuously as if in extreme pain.

He wanted to rush over and strangle Li Yu, but being shackled by chains, he could not move an inch.
