Wizards: Starting as a Potions Master!

Chapter 355 The Favored Ones of the God of Law

In the darkness of night.

Su Nan frowned, ignoring the resentment in Rosen's words, and directly asked, "How can I fully activate the bloodline within me?"

Saint Rosen Helmod said, "To awaken the divine bloodline of the God of Law, one must possess the spirit to judge all living beings and establish laws for heaven and earth. You do possess that. What limits you is your age."

"The age at which the bloodline of a normal divine being fully awakens is 22 years old."

"Once you are fully awakened, you are ready to become the spokesperson of the God of Law on earth."

Su Nan was speechless. He was just a second-ring wizard. What was he doing acting as the spokesperson for the God of Law on earth?

Su Nan asked, "Then, is there a way to accelerate the awakening? I'm only 17 years old now."

It's definitely better to awaken one's divine bloodline as early as possible.

The next moment, Saint Rosen Helmod teleported to Su Nan's side.

Su Nan glanced at the Arcane Intuition Ring on the middle finger of his right hand, confirming that the ring was not flashing and that the other party had no intention of killing him. Only then did he make no move, allowing the other party to place his right hand, which was full of the spirituality of the Law Saint, on his chest.

Rosen said, "By directly contacting you with the essence of the divine power contained in the God of Law, we can forcibly activate the divine bloodline within you."

"Sunan Peter".

"It's not that I support you, but as a god-like being who is simultaneously a wizard, a storm lord, and a god of law, I am indeed curious about how far you can go."

"Then let me help you. Just be careful, activating your bloodline in this way carries certain risks. You are currently facing a judgment that left a deep impression on the God of Law when he was still a mortal before he became a god."

"Please make your judgment."

The next moment, Su Nan knew what danger was. He felt Saint Rosen's sun-like spirituality pressed directly in front of him, as if he had fallen into the sun.

Then, he saw a vast expanse of white before him, as if he were in a radiant light. Before him were three enormous crosses, and on the crosses were three ragged humans covered in wounds.

The hands and feet of these humans were nailed to the cross by long nails of light.

Although they were in such a sorry state, Su Nan sensed that the aura of each of them was no weaker than his own, and some were even stronger.

They are not wizards.

If this is indeed a memory experienced by the God of Law, then the era in which this event occurred must be so ancient that it is impossible to verify, and it may not even have happened in the Prime Material Plane.

Therefore, the three sinners trapped on the cross, awaiting judgment, must be powerful beings within some kind of power system.

Six holy angels were wielding golden whips, lashing them and leaving wounds on their bodies, rebuking them for betraying the gods.

There seemed to be many spectators around, all of whom were shouting that the three traitors were guilty and should be executed immediately.

Su Nan seems to be the judge in this trial, or rather, he is currently in the position of the God of Law in this memory, and the angels are waiting for his final command.

Su Nan then reviewed the charges against the three individuals.

It turns out that the plane these three people lived in was burdened with extremely heavy taxes by a deity called the Ancient Sun. Unable to pay the taxes, the Ancient Sun unleashed his divine power, causing a thirty-year drought in that plane.

So these three men organized a rebellion against the army of the ancient Church of the Sun, violating the divine law that mortals must never disobey the gods. They were defeated, captured, and thus trapped here.

Today is the day of their trial.

This is the sacred court of the ancient sun.

These three individuals even attempted to breach the Heavenly Gate of the Ancient Sun's divine kingdom, committing an unforgivable crime.

Not only were the gods angry, but even the followers of the Ancient Sun in various planes were furious.

The three prisoners, waiting to die on the sacred cross, roared in anger.

"We disagree."

"What difference do we have between gods and demons?!"

"We are not rebelling against the gods, we just want to live! We are not thugs, we just want to live. It is the divine law that forces us to live, we have no choice but to rebel. Must we die to obey the divine law?"

At this moment, the memory of the God of Law's anger was transmitted to Su Nan through his spirit. His gaze toward the three people on the sacred cross turned cold and filled with disgust, as if it were because the words these three people had spoken had once aroused the God of Law's extreme aversion.

Su Nan asked, "Are they... guilty...?"

Suddenly, the white, spiritual space turned crimson, and the audience seemed to become even more enraged.

"guilty!"

"guilty!"

Su Nan turned to look at the three people on the sacred cross. At this moment, if he represented the God of Law and made a judgment here, he would probably be able to awaken his bloodline.

After all, it doesn't matter how the verdict is made.

The key is that by experiencing the memories of the God of Law during his mortal days, one can awaken one's own divine bloodline.

After all, awakening the bloodline of a god is not that difficult. He was just too young and eager to strengthen his power, so he awakened the ability that was originally his.

But Su Nan felt very uncomfortable in this situation.

If all I need to do is make a judgment here, and I don't even know what judgments the God of Law made during the time of mortals in history.

However, judging from the God of Law's anger and indifference towards the three at this moment, they should be found guilty.

But I clearly have a different opinion on this.

Sunan raised his right hand, and the audience and angels immediately stopped shouting "guilty!" and began to wait for Sunan, as the judge of the sacred court, to pronounce the death sentences on the three rebel leaders.

Su Nan said, "I would like to ask everyone a question."

"There is no law here, no one to defend the other side, not even a single person who can remain calm. What kind of court is this?"

"If the trial itself is irregular, then there is no point in the trial. Therefore, I will not convict you of guilt or innocence; I declare this trial invalid."

The surrounding spiritual audience fell silent for a moment, then burst into angry voices.

"Traitor! You are a traitor."

"Sun angels, kill him!"

Su Nan's gaze turned cold, and he began a mocking mode, one person mocking a group of people.

"I thought you guys set up a court because it was so fair, but it turns out the court is just a place for you to vent your emotions."

"The authority of the law should be upheld in itself."

"It's not about judging criminals for the sake of the ancient sun, but about judging criminals for the sake of the law. The law was created to improve people's lives and to make those who have made mistakes reflect on their actions, not to punish for the sake of punishment."

"The law is meant to protect the interests of the innocent, not the interests of God."

"Gentlemen, I'm not going to play along with your nonsense."

He saw a sun angel charging towards him with a sword drawn. Su Nan's eyes lit up slightly. "Perfect timing!"

His own second-ring Sun Mark potion, which had undergone seven ascensions, was not yet fully refined.

Although this is merely a memory, it is the spiritual manifestation of the God of Law, the God of Law himself, and the events he experienced during his mortal life.

Therefore, although that sun angel no longer exists in reality, his spirituality is real here.

The Sun Angel, wielding a greatsword tens of meters long, slashed at Su Nan. The moment it struck Su Nan's Permanent Defense Field, Brown Force Field Shield, the greatsword burst into flames.

A torrent of countless solar energy particles bombarded him, and Su Nan felt the torrent, which was like a solar particle storm, and his understanding of the magic of the sun became even deeper.

The Sun Angel's eyes were cold. "Judge, your abilities are not bad."

"But you shouldn't betray your god."

Su Nan's eyes were strange. It seemed that the God of Law was once a judge of the ancient sun god. But later, the God of Law was clearly the god-king of the pantheon of order. Could it be that the God of Law rose to power later and was now killed by another god who rose to power later?

Su Nan thought of Myrcat. Although he didn't have the rank of God of Law, Myrcat was still a god of a mid-level plane. Compared to the main gods of the Astral Plane and the Prime Material Plane, the difference was so great that they were essentially two different beings.

But Melkat was also betrayed by the gods and lost his divine position.

Su Nan transformed into a golden werewolf hunter, summoning five hundred acres of land from the past, as well as the wizards of the Metal School.

The sun angel, his entire body enveloped in flames, then transformed into a blazing sun, instantly burning away all the land that Su Nan had summoned from the past using prophetic magic.

Then Su Nan, as the Golden Werewolf Hunter, exchanged more than thirty blows with the Sun Angel. Su Nan was beheaded and cut in half at the waist many times, but he managed to survive on several occasions thanks to his immortality.

Of course, Su Nan's immortality has now reached its limit.

Because the high temperature surrounding the Sun Angel effectively suppressed his immortality.

Meanwhile, Su Nan had secretly instructed the AI ​​to record over three hundred data points about the Sun Angel during the battle. Just as the Sun Angel raised his sword to strike again, and the surrounding spectators were all expressing their desire to destroy him and the three sinners, a pure white light suddenly fell from the sky.

Then, in a moment of terror, the sun angel's body disintegrated. "Those are other gods..."

At the same time, all the angels present were destroyed by that light of law.

Su Nan himself was also within the range of that light of law.

However, after being attacked by the Light of Law, his body was forcibly transformed back into a human. At the same time, the Heraclius bloodline within him was rapidly activated and absorbed a portion of the Light of Law, and began to grow vigorously.

The light of law within his bloodline outlined a law codex. On the first page of the codex appeared the words "Curse Transformation." Then, the codex automatically turned the page, and on the second page appeared the words "Energy Counterattack."

Su Nan's expression was strange. "Is this considered a reward? The God of Law granted me the abilities of other divine families belonging to the God of Law, just because I questioned the legitimacy of that court. Wait a minute."

Su Nan suddenly realized something. "Could it be that when the God of Law experienced this event as a mortal, his judgment was... similar to mine?"

"He chose a third option—upholding the dignity of the law—between protecting the lives of mortals and upholding the dignity of the gods."

The next moment, the spirituality in Su Nan's eyes grew thinner and thinner. He regained consciousness and saw Saint Rosen Helmod, covered in sweat and panting heavily.

Rosen saw a fleeting golden glint in Su Nan's pupils. "This is unbelievable! Congratulations, you favored one of the God of Law!"

"Only a select few divine beings can become the chosen ones of the Lord of Law and gain power that surpasses their own divine lineage. Those who possess the status of chosen ones are generally the designated next emperors."

Su Nan felt a chill run down his spine. He only wanted to get a little bit of the divine family's bloodline ability for free, and he didn't want to get involved in this increasingly complicated struggle for the emperor's throne in the prime material plane.

Su Nan now knows the special meaning of the Prime Material Plane in the void of the heavens.

Su Nan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Um... can I refuse...?"

Saint Rosen Helmod looked at him strangely.

Su Nan said, "Alright, never mind."

Saint Rosen's eyes then returned to normal.

Su Nan said, "However, may I ask what choice the God of Law made regarding the judgment I just witnessed in that memory?"

Rosen Helmod said, "Almost the same as you. By the Lord of the Law, I misspoke. No, you did something almost exactly like the Lord of the Law."

"The Lord of Law was furious at the time because those three mortals questioned the gods and divine law. But he was even more concerned about the fact that the ancient sun had violated regulations by conducting the Holy Tribunal, and that the court proceedings were essentially a way of labeling those three humans."

"So when He, as a judge of the Holy Tribunal, publicly questioned whether the Holy Tribunal was still valid, He suffered the same treatment as you—besieged and attacked by many saints, angels, and divine beings."

"But no one was willing to save Him at that time. He fought his way out, severely wounded. After many years, he achieved godhood in his struggle against the forces of the ancient sun on earth, and gained the support of a civilization."

"He became the God of Law."

"And after becoming the God of Law, he immediately launched a divine war against the ancient sun. Then, in the long divine war, he destroyed the ancient sun."

Su Nan asked, "Was the ancient sun the former god of the Order pantheon, the god of law, who received help from a civilization of the prime material plane?"

Saint Rosen Helmod said, "You are very clever. No wonder my Lord likes you, binds you deeply to us, and bestows upon you power. Both of your guesses are correct."

Su Nan immediately gave a wry smile.

This is troublesome. It turns out that the civilizations of the prime material plane can influence the succession of god-kings and even make the God of Law a deity. Moreover, after becoming a deity, he is a relatively powerful one.

Su Nan tried one more time. "Saint Rosen. I'm just an ordinary little wizard with no ambition."

"Could you speak to the God of Law?"

"Revoke my status as a chosen one of God."

Rosen glanced at him, then turned and walked away, as if he didn't want to pay him any attention.

"Since you have divine blood, you've already been involved in this matter."

"Here's a piece of advice for you: when God wants to kill you, it often has nothing to do with you personally."

Su Nan raised an eyebrow. "Then how am I supposed to coexist with the Palaiologos family of the Nicomedia Empire?"

Rosen stood a distance away, his back to him, and shook his head.

"That's your own business. The various divine families of the God of Law are inherently in a competitive and hostile relationship, as well as a cooperative and subordinate relationship."

"You decide what to do."

"Moreover, the Palaiolo family has long forgotten the law. In their eyes, conspiracy, deception, bribery, and assassination are more effective than the law. They have fallen."
