I ascend to the throne of God with arcane magic.

Chapter 714 Specialty [Artifact Master]

In the small world,

Preston looked at the [Wrath of the Mountain Soul] in front of him, wondering what he was thinking.

There was no longer any dwarf around him, and the remaining dwarf guards followed his orders and guarded the entrance to the small world.

But Preston didn't have to wait long.

An old dwarf in a simple gray robe appeared not far away and walked towards Preston step by step.

Preston noticed the old man's arrival, nodded at him and said:

"Archbishop Leander, thank you for coming here again."

"It should."

Leander nodded slightly, looked at the [Rage of the Mountain Soul] in Preston's hand, and said with some doubt:
"What's matter?"

"Could it be that something went wrong with [Rage of the Mountain Soul]?"

After a pause, Leander looked at the surrounding environment and said:

"If I remember correctly, this should be the tower dedicated to the [Wrath of the Mountain Soul]. Was it destroyed?"

"Could it be that those evil god believers have actually invaded here?"

Preston shook his head and said with a smile:

"No, it was just an accident."

"Or rather, it was a pretty good accident."

"Oh?"

Leander looked at the dwarf king in front of him with some surprise.

He rarely saw the dwarf king smiling.

In fact, Preston has been in a bad mood recently because of the affairs of those evil god believers.

"It's like this. There was a young man named Reese in the Hammer Workshop. When he came into contact with the [Rage of the Mountain Soul]."

Then Preston told Leander everything about Reese.

"That's it"

Leander muttered to himself.

To be honest, Reese's talent brought a greater impact to Leander.

After all, as the archbishop of the Dwarf Temple, Leander knows more about things related to the gods.

Leander was well aware of the importance of semi-artifacts and holy artifacts to the dwarves.

In fact, except for the Dwarf King Preston, it is basically the clergy of the temple who use semi-artifacts and holy artifacts.

Leander knew best the powerful force of semi-artifacts and holy artifacts, as well as the price to pay for using them.

If a qualified person with a semi-artifact appears, it will be a very important matter for both the Dwarf Royal Court and the Dwarf Temple.

If what Preston said is true, although Li Si is not a qualified person to use the semi-artifact [Wrath of the Mountain Soul], his special talent may be more important to the temple and the royal court than a qualified person.

"Your Majesty, has Reese's talent been confirmed?"

Leander asked, looking at Preston.

If what Preston said was true, then Naris was a strategic presence to the dwarves, enough to influence the decision-making of the entire tribe.

"not yet."

Preston said somewhat conservatively.

Although he had roughly believed what Reese said, he had to be extremely cautious about such an important matter.

"I have arranged for someone to go to Reese's hometown to verify what he said."

"Besides, I have someone take Li Si to the high tower where the [Eternal Wine] is enshrined."

"If what Reese said is true, he should also be able to master the [Eternal Wine]."

"【Eternal Wine】?"

Leander nodded slightly upon hearing this.

He understood what Preston meant when he had someone take Reese to try to master the [Eternal Wine].

[Eternal Wine] is a special holy weapon and an auxiliary equipment without any attack power.

However, at the cost of not being able to cause damage, [Eternal Wine] possesses a powerful auxiliary ability.

[Eternal Brew] can transform the clear water into extremely strong wine. The user can use [Eternal Brew] to release special wine mist.

Anyone who comes into contact with this alcohol mist will become drunk and lose the ability to think and act.

[Eternal Wine] The effect of the wine mist is extremely powerful, and even non-living things can be "drunk".

In addition, after drinking the fine wine from [Eternal Wine], the recognized dwarf will gain the special status of [Drunken Blood].

In this state, the dwarf warrior is immune to most negative states, his attack, defense, and endurance are greatly enhanced, and he will automatically recover from injuries.

Of course, the most important thing is that drinking the fine wine from [Eternal Wine] on a regular basis can significantly speed up the process of gaining strength.

If Reese could master [Eternal Wine], the effect of accelerating strength improvement would be more obvious.

After all, for Reese now, improving his strength is the most important thing.

Without legendary strength, even if you master a semi-artifact, you won't be able to exert much power.

"Yes."

Preston nodded and then looked at Leander.

Leander understood Preston's thoughts.

If Rees's talent is true, then he himself is extremely important to the Dwarf Court and the Dwarf Temple.

To this end, the royal court and the temple must make some preparations.

"I use the power of my Lord to leave a traceback mark in the [Eternal Wine]."

Leander said slowly:

"Besides that, the Temple will definitely support your idea of ​​improving Reese's strength."

"With such talent, it's worth paying any price."

"it is good."

Preston heard this and nodded with satisfaction.

He must inform the temple about such an important matter.

Moreover, the process of helping Li Si improve his strength definitely requires the assistance of the temple.

After all, many high-level good things are in the temple.

However, he was very familiar with Leander and knew that as long as he explained the reason, the archbishop would not refuse his request.

The rest depends on Reese himself.

From what I saw of that kid before, he should have just broken through to the gold level not long ago.

Considering Reese's age, this is pretty good.

But in his eyes, the strength of the gold level is not enough.

With the investment of a huge amount of resources, there should be a chance to try to break through the legend within fifty years.

Looking at Preston's expression, Leander said with a smile:

"Don't be too anxious. If you force the young person to bear too much pressure, the result may not satisfy you."

Hearing Leander's words, Preston was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "I understand. Archbishop Leander may need your care at that time."

"It should."

Leander nodded.

Just as the two fell into silence again, another explosion suddenly sounded in the distance of the small world.

What followed was the familiar power fluctuations of [Eternal Wine] and the sand blown up by the wind.

"This kid, I forgot to remind him, and he blew up another of my towers."

Preston shook his head and smiled.

"This is nothing. A tall tower is nothing. I'll have someone come over to repair it when the time comes."

"But it seems that the situation is not bad."

Leander also had a smile on his face.

With the strength of the two of them, they could naturally see Reese's figure in the distance.

At the same time, a bronze wine jug was floating beside him, shining brightly.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Si regained consciousness.

He opened his eyes, saw the wine jug floating in the air in front of him, and reached out to pick it up.

Feeling the powerful fluctuations in it, Li Si naturally understood the power of this holy weapon.

When Li Si came into contact with and controlled this holy weapon just now, he understood the effect of [Eternal Wine].

Li Si picked it up gently and drank the clear wine which had a strong aroma.

"Whoo~"

As soon as the wine entered his stomach, it was as if a raging fire burned directly from his throat into his chest.

At the same time, an extremely pure force emanated from the wine and merged into Li Si's body.
-
Hey~
[You used the wine from the holy vessel [Eternal Wine]!]
[You have gained 100 million experience points!]
[You have obtained the special status [Blessing of Dionysus]! ]
[Special status [Blessing of Dionysus]: ​​Health and mana recovery speed +50%, experience gain speed +10%, toughness judgment priority +2]
(Duration: 23 hours and 55 seconds)——
Oh open!

The effect is really good!
Li Si looked at the system panel in front of him and nodded with some surprise.

He didn't expect that while gaining experience points by drinking [Eternal Wine], he could also directly increase the speed of gaining experience points.

This state is extremely rare, and the duration of [Bacchanal's Blessing] is very long.

As for the additional one million experience points, it is a very good improvement for gold-level professionals.

But for Li Si, who has already achieved legendary status and consumes billions of experience points to level up, it is just average.

But after all, it's free, so there's no need to lower it.

This effect can only take effect once per period of time.
Fortunately, [Eternal Wine] can be reused, which is very good.

I just don't know whether the Dwarf King will allow him to use this holy weapon.

But I think that with the talent he has shown, the Dwarf King's Court and the Temple should invest more energy in it, right?

But it also increases his risk of exposure.

Especially the Dwarf Temple.

Li Si was very confident in the camouflage spell he had carefully prepared, but the Dwarf Temple could borrow the power of the dwarf gods.

Even Li Si could not guarantee that he could hide it from those people in the temple.

Some more preparation is needed.

Moreover, we must enter the Molten Core as soon as possible and take away the magic ring.

Li Si has already gained a lot of benefits. As long as he can take away the magic ring in the end, this trip to Lonely Mountain City will be a huge profit.

Even if it is discovered by the Dwarf Temple and the Royal Court later, it won't be a big loss.

Thinking of this, Li Si looked at the previous system message.

[Semi-artifact [Rage of the Mountain Soul] meets the conditions for the talent [Almighty] to take effect!]
[You are exempt from the control requirement of [Rage of the Mountain Soul]!]
[You have been recognized by the semi-artifact [Rage of the Mountain Soul]!]
Hey~
[You have successfully mastered the semi-artifact [Rage of the Mountain Soul]!]
[You gain special expertise [Artifact Master] and [God's Hand]!]
[You embark on a special milestone mission [Treasure Collector]!]
[Special Expertise [Artifact Master]: If you have successfully mastered a semi-artifact or an artifact, you will gain an additional judgment bonus when trying to master a semi-artifact or an artifact; the damage and effect of using any tier of weapons and equipment will be increased by 50%, and the damage received from any tier of weapons and equipment will be reduced by 50% (the effect of the artifact will be halved)]
[Special Expertise [God's Hand]: Maximum attribute value +20%, physical and mental load when using weapons and equipment is reduced]
[Special Milestone Mission [Treasure Collector]: Successfully mastered 10 pieces of holy, semi-artifact, and artifact-level weapons and equipment
Current mastery number: 2/10]——
Li Si did not expect that after successfully mastering a semi-artifact, he would be able to gain such a reward.

Whether it is [Artifact Master] or [God-Given Hand], they are both very powerful specialties.

It has a certain effect on improving Li Si's strength.

As for the special milestone mission [Treasure Collector], Li Si was quite curious about the rewards he could get for completing this mission.

I don’t know what kind of abilities I will get by then.

Judging from the task description, it should be an ability related to artifacts.

No matter what, the special abilities related to the artifact will definitely not be weak.

Just at this moment, Li Si noticed something and looked up ahead.

The Dwarf King Preston and Archbishop Leander walked towards him.

"What a strong young man!"

Leander looked at Li Si and said with a smile on his kind face.

"Your Majesty Preston, Archbishop Leander!"

Li Si saluted to the two of them and spoke respectfully.

Preston patted Li Si on the back with satisfaction, and said to Reese with a smile:
"Good boy, not bad!"

"Now that you have mastered the [Eternal Wine], why don't you treat me and Leander to a drink?"

“I like the taste of [Eternal Wine] the most.”

Preston pointed to the wine jug in Reese's hand and laughed.

"of course."

Upon hearing this, Li Si quickly took out two cups from his storage ring, filled them with wine and handed them to Preston and Leander.

From what Preston said, it seems that unlike [Wrath of the Mountain Soul], [Eternal Wine] will not be taken back in a short period of time and will be given to him directly for use.

Of course Li Si would not refuse such a good thing.

However, Li Si had no intention of forcibly taking it for himself.

Just like the [Wrath of the Mountain Soul] before, these holy artifacts and semi-artifacts contain the power of the dwarf gods.

Even if it was taken away, it would be easy for the Dwarf King to take it back as long as the connection was not broken.

However, even if it is just borrowed for a period of time, it can bring considerable benefits to Li Si.

"Ha~"

Preston drank the wine happily, looked at Reese who was about to pour him more wine and said:
"I discussed this with Leander. Reese, your talent is very important to us."

"It's very important to the entire dwarf race."

"However, it's too early to say this before you break through to legend."

Preston looked at Li Si and said:

"So, what you need to do is to improve your strength as quickly as possible and break through the legend."

"For this, the Royal Court and the Temple will provide you with as much assistance as possible."

"I understand."

Li Si nodded, with a hint of hesitation on his face.

"Of course, breaking through the legend is not a small matter, Reese, you don't have to feel too much pressure."

As if noticing Reese's "uneasiness", Leander said gently:
"Is there anything you want now?"

Reese hesitated for a moment, looked at Preston and Leander and said:
"I want to be qualified to enter Molten Core."
