The Arcane God - Chapter 73

Chapter 73: The Power of the Divine Worm [I]
[Beast Slayer, you just needs to practice with peace of mind now. The trials of Hades are still far away from you. After your powerbase is strong enough, you can explore the world for the scroll of divinity]

“Okay…” Oscar voiced half-mindedly, deep in thought.

[However, having said that, even if you can’t find the scroll of divinity, judging from your current powerbase, depending on your ability after you have reached the gate of immortality, the trials of Hades might not be able to deal you a mortal blow. After all, your powerbase is well established and it’s pretty solid. If the divine mage I was guarding had been a monster like you back then, he would have been alive today]

“I….” Oscar stuttered, not knowing what to say.

[I understand. Now, you have begun to awaken your divine sense, which is also a surprise development. I believe it is due to two things. One is the good fortune of the luminous bugs. They have the effect of manifesting the power of the soul. And second, it is also because you have me residing in your mind. It must be under the combined influence of the two that caused your divine sense to take shape at such a low level of advancement]

Oscar nodded, feeling that the guardian’s analysis was reasonable. Then he jolted, as if he thought of something, and he quickly asked. “Remnant, did you mean that the silkworm can manifest soul power? Then do you know if it could repair a damaged powerbase?”

[I know what you have on your mind, Beast Slayer. You want your school master, the mage Oberon, to restore his powerbase through the luminous worms, isn’t it?]

“Yes, remnant.” Oscar said, “Master Oberon had helped my clan during a time of disaster and saved many lives. His condition was also caused by defending my clan from the catastrophe. So I was thinking of a way to repay his kindness. ”

[Then, yes. The magic worms will have a miraculous effect on the mage’s powerbase. But if you give him the magic worms, the existence of this cave will no longer be a secret. This matter is about your personal gain and loss, you yourself must decide. As a guardian, I will continue to sustain what remains of the consciousness for as long as possible. So things like this, you can do on your own]

After finishing speaking, the remnant went straight into deep concentration and stopped talking.

Oscar thought for a while and made a decision in his heart.

As the blazing sun descended to the west, and the moon rose to the east, Oscar slowly woke up from his meditation.

After half a year of practice, he felt that he had reached the mid-stage of the copper level. This speed was quite amazing.

One must know that among the five students, Lester, who had the highest powerbase, had been refining for a year and a half, and he was only at the late stages of copper level.

Oscar got up and pushed the door open. At this time, under the faint light of the moon, the courtyard was full of black holes, and only a few houses could be seen faintly showing some lights.

Because the Mystic Peaks branch did not have much funding. So everyone only used low grade oil lamps for lighting at night, so the light was very dim.

Seeing that the light was still on in Oberon’s room, Oscar walked over and knocked gently on the door. At the same time, he asked, “Master, are you awake?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened with a slight creak. When Oberon saw that it was Oscar, he let him in and closed the door again.

“Oxcar, why do you visit me at this hour?” Oberon closed the door and turned around to ask.

Oscar bit his lower lip and said, “Master, I know your powerbase has been damaged from what you told me, but I want to ask about your recovery. How is it now?”

“It’s progressing well, I believe.” Oberon wondered why Oscar suddenly asked this question. After thinking for a while, Oberon said. “If I encounter any danger now, I’ll be able to defend myself. But why the sudden interest in my recovery?”

Oscar didn’t answer, raised his hand and pulled it from his waist, took out a magic bug from his storage space and placed it in his palm.

Oscar stretched out the magic worm in front of Oberon and asked, “Master, do you know what kind of creature this is?”

Oberon took the magic worm, and saw that it was a big fat worm, and it was about to become a ball of fat. The size was as big as the thumb of a finger, and the body seemed to be full of liquid. The whole body was transparent and translucent.

The insect’s head has no eyes, only a small mouth, and it seemed that it was about to degenerate. There were several pairs of small meat whiskers under the abdomen, which were sticky.

The most peculiar thing was that this bug had a small green spot on the inside of its body, and it flashes a faint green light to the outside of the body. The original dim light in the room was covered with a halo of greenish color, making it seem even more eerie.

Oberon frowned, thought for a long time in his mind, shook his head gently, and said, “Oxcar, where did you find this worm? From my knowledge, I know it’s a worm, but I can’t tell what kind of worm it is. Especially with the green flash of light coming from its belly. I have never heard of a worm that emits light by itself.”

“Master, I do know the origin of this worm. It has also been my secret for a long time. I didn’t want to let others know about it, but today I’ve decided to show it to you. I believe that this worm can heal your fractured powerbase.”

“What are you talking about, child.”

“It’s a divine worm, master, and a very old one. It has great magical power and I believe it can heal you, master. I have more of it.” After speaking, Oscar took out another large handful of magic worms from his storage space and put them on the table. Then he said. “If you eat a divine worm every day, you can not only increase your powerbase, but also increase the divine sense of the refiner. The reason why my powerbase is as high as 93, I believe, is because I eat one magic worm every day. These worms have a lot to do with it.”
