Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 814 Armies' Attempt to Recover

Almighty impatiently picked up a statue of an old man who had fallen to the ground and intended to place it on a low cabinet to the side.

It looks like a matching set.

Tsk~ They're dressed just as lightly, but it looks like a completely different style from Greece.

Its head is really big.

The beard was also different; although it grew to the feet, it was only one stalk.

Moreover, he takes great care of his appearance, unlike the Greeks who prefer a messy, bushy beard.

Despite his inner turmoil, he quickly arranged the statue.

There was no way around it; having been a god himself, Armes knew all too well how heartbreaking this situation was.

Only idols of gods who have lost their faith will have no support.

Otherwise, even if the sky were to collapse and the earth to cave in, the statue would not fall.

He had received a favor from someone, so he felt he should do something in return.

Looking at the somewhat bald head, Armies looked around and then picked up a crown from the ground.

He glanced at the rather large crown with a hint of curiosity before pressing it onto the statue's head.

Sure enough, it fell right onto my ear.

Seeing that comical appearance, Armies suddenly burst out laughing... He really had nothing better to do.

Why would I bother arguing with a wolf?
Just like Lowry said, the Gale Wolves have all sorts of personalities, but they have no humanity.

No matter how good their character is, it's still wolfishness.

This includes dragons.

“Tiamat is Tiamat, and the white dragon is the white dragon,” Armes murmured, reaching out to straighten the crown.

Then, his hand froze.

The two infinity rings tugged and fell from the crown into his hands.

Armies raised his head, and the crown, which had been much larger than before, was now neatly positioned on top of the statue's head... making it look like a large section was missing.

He picked up the two rings and examined them carefully, finally confirming that the rings had been placed at the very bottom of the crown.

He glanced again at the crown, which was smaller and more worn, and pushed the statue with a heart full of confusion.

The statue remained motionless.

It looks like it was suddenly glued to the cabinet.

Armies pushed the cabinet again.

The cabinet didn't budge.

"Uh..." He gasped sharply, then asked in a low voice, "Who are you planning to leave this to?"

The statue, which has a very serious expression, seems to have a slight upward turn at the corner of its mouth.

“Looking at those few white dragons here, they won’t easily contact Tiamat.”

"The world is closed off too," Armes couldn't help but remind him, "You..."

Suddenly, the crown on the statue's head flashed with several beams of light.

Armies suddenly shut his mouth.

The crown has an interesting design, with all of them pointing upwards, some even crooked or bent.

But the softened horns, with only the tips remaining, were still fixed in the shape of a crown.

So, what kind of stone is that?

Why can't he tell what kind of material it is?
No, wait...

That's a dragon's tooth?
Whose teeth...?

Hiss, no way?
This place...

My mother~
Should we just use Flash now?

How far can Katarina jump?

"Should we put this statue away?" Hades walked over. "I've been watching you for a long time."

Is there anything special about it?

"No, don't touch it!" Armies immediately stopped him.

"What's wrong?" Hades asked, puzzled. "Is there a bomb inside?"

“Almost.

For you, it might mean... that if you touch it, Zeus will just appear out of nowhere.

Hades quickly retreated: "This place is all packed up. I'll go check the list with Katarina. You hurry up and open the next cave."

Armies couldn't help but sigh again... He really didn't want to take advantage of his friend!
However, this was an open conspiracy, and he couldn't stop it.

We can only hope that Katarina will be lazy to the end and never come in to take another look.

This is something he has absolutely no control over, and the more he shows concern, the stronger Katarina's reaction will be... She might not even be able to wait until the end before she has to come in and see.

Moreover, there are some things he cannot say.

Armies could only leave calmly, turning to open the second door.

He quickly realized that this cave was more realistic than the previous ones.

If he's willing, he can quickly use the resources here to build an extraordinary army of over a thousand people.

Even in a world like Toril, there's more than enough here. He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw Katarina arguing irritably with Hades... it seemed they had different opinions on the value of a certain resource.

This is normal.

Hades, after all, possessed immense divine power, and he had a different way of assessing resources.

The pricing of basic and top-tier resources is not consistent with that of ordinary people in his case.

That means both sides have a valid point.

That will require some discussion.

He'd better hurry!

Armies couldn't help but glance outside... Why hadn't the person he was waiting for arrived yet?
He has already accomplished his main goal here; the only thing left is to complete the door-to-door delivery task.

Touching the Infinity Ring in his hand, Armies casually glanced at his parents and Bowen, whose eyes were shining... The knight was indeed different from him.

The cave in front is full of top-tier rare resources, including many high-level artifacts and second-rate divine artifacts.

There are even three genuine divine artifacts!

But his parents just looked at him with a surprised expression and that was it.

On the contrary, this cave held little interest for him, while Ezra and his wife were extremely grateful.

Bowen was less about joining in their madness and more about trying to control the situation.

Seeing that the treasure hadn't moved for a long time, Armes had no choice but to throw out his Thousand-Thread Spiderweb.

The Thousand-Thread Spider Web is actually very useful; it's quite fast at grabbing and collecting things.

The only downside is... seeing that a large portion of the resources were already gone before even reaching halfway, Armies said irritably, "Baby Spider!"

If you eat too much and get indigestion, I won't help you!

Ezra, who had been carefully examining a piece of resin, ignored Bowen's advice and immediately dropped what she was holding. She quickly began gathering the resources around her, shouting as she did so, "Armes! Put the spider baby away! I'm getting to work! Don't let her swallow it!"

The Countess also stopped and looked at them with concern.

Almes smiled slightly and put away the Thousand-Thread Spider Web... The baby spider was always greedy and its wisdom was still in a state of ignorance, so it was naturally full.

Although she was still a little reluctant, she would not resist Armies taking back his decision... Of course, being able to do this was the result of countless lessons learned.

Although his plant companion is very useful, he places more hope in the future.

The more powerful a creature is, the longer its infancy period.

At this stage, the Thousand-Thread Spider Vine is not as strong as Valera's banyan tree.

Especially in terms of intelligence.

Valera's banyan tree not only has its own name, but also helps her manage Maple Valley.

And his Thousand-Thread Spider Vine still doesn't think there's anything wrong with the nickname 'Baby Spider', and even enjoys hearing it.

Fortunately, all the reactions proved that she preferred female spiders, so she wasn't too upset when her intelligence fully awakened later.

There was nothing Armies could do.

He certainly tried to call her by a better name, but although he couldn't remember many things about Thousand-Thread Spider Vine, she still knew that she had her own name.

I just don't know what it's called.

Therefore, she preferred the nickname 'Baby Spider,' which sounded like a nickname and also reflected the affection her owner's family had for her.

All others were firmly rejected.

Then she'll just have to bear the consequences herself in the future.

Almes imagined the future, standing high in the divine realm, with countless void threads hanging down to the world and the thousand-thread spider web reaching into the universe. He wondered what kind of awkward situation he would be in if he encountered someone like Katarina, who knew the truth and dared to speak out. He couldn't help but happily rub the baby spider on his wrist.

The silk threads of the Thousand-Thread Spiderweb Vine, which had been drifting aimlessly, suddenly stopped. She gathered hundreds and thousands of threads together to form a slender finger, and then carefully touched the two swaying infinite rings on Almes's hand.

"Hmm...you really know what's better!" Armes said with admiration. "Don't worry, it was originally intended for you to use."

Since he intends to completely sever ties with his former self, a gap will inevitably appear in his soul.

After all, even though he never opened that demiplane or actively contacted any of his past selves, there were still many threads in his soul sea that stretched into the void.

If he hadn't been stuck in a completely sealed-off world where even the elemental realm couldn't be opened, his whereabouts would have been discovered long ago.

After all, unlike Hermes who hides deep within treasure troves or in the crevices of time and space, the real world is the easiest to trace.

The idea that something is easiest to hide in the most bustling place is a beautiful one, but it's not suitable for deities whose fates are intertwined.

Armies stared intently at himself, then looked sincerely at the Thousand-Thread Spiderweb Vine: "Baby Spider, after I use this, my future will be entirely in your hands!"

The fingers formed from the converging silk threads pointed to themselves without hesitation, then bent towards Armies, displaying immense courage.

Huh~
Armies laughed even more heartily.

When everything is over, sever all the connecting lines completely, replace the remaining gaps with the void threads of growing thousand-thread spiderweb vines, and finally seal them completely with an infinite ring.

At that time, he was truly and completely Armies.

The path to godhood might be a little difficult.

After all, he wasn't just walking up by himself; he also had to pull the Thousand-Thread Spider Vine up with him.

If the Thousand-Thread Spider Vine weren't a legendary creature, he would have been exhausted to the point of vomiting blood if he wanted to raise her to the level of a myth.

So, hardship at first isn't true hardship, right?

Almes shook hands with the baby spider again, then, as if remembering something, raised his voice and asked, "Katarina, are you from the Maple Territory interested in the things here?"

A huge wolf head appeared at the warehouse entrance in response.
